Do you have one of those?

Nice collection. I have alot of emulators on my PC too, for around 40 different retro-systems.

I assume you have "Launch Box" being one of the emulators?

No, the "Launch Box" frontend is not included so far.

Already took me a while to have figured out how Amiga emulators works,

I can imagine. WinUAE for example, has hundreds of setting-options. If you had an Amiga back then in the 90's, it's not that hard to cope with all that WinUAE's functions, but if you didn't have one and then have to familiarise yourself with the hundreds of functions, then it's really work at the beginning. You first have to test out many functions and see what happens when you change something. Fortunately, I already had Amiga computers back then, so it was easier to begin with WinUAE.

Xbox emulators took me even more time to figured them out, and some games are still not playable.

For this console, my ten years old PC is not fast enough, to realize a good working emulation.

ZX Spectrum emulators require certain ROMs to be installed first and it had taken me a while.

Here i can recommend the two emulators "Spectaculator" and "ZX Spin" which i use since years. Maybe you already know and use them? Good functions and good compatibility.

MSX is the easiest, just plug and play.

Yes and also the MSX and MSX2 system has some really good games. I use the "blueMSX" emulator for these two systems, it's nice.

Mame has many non-playable games.

There are some, yes. M.A.M.E. is nice, the only thing i don't like so much is, that the user must update all his game-roms from time to time. But i use this emulator alot for some of the old game-classics.

As far as for Commodore 64 goes,

As many as over 28,500 games available on the GAMEBASE64, there is just only a few options you could do with them, and I have already ran out of options.

You can sort out around 10.000 of these, in my opinion, because they are only small BASIC programs and not really good and playable games. But the nice thing on the GB64 is, that only one crackversion to every game can be found in this archive (mostly the best crack), while for example the TOSEC archiv has included everything. All cracks to all games. Also nice to have (i have it here to on my PC) but not really good usable on a SD-Card of a 1541Ultimate, Chameleon64 or SD2IEC because you must search alot then, until you find one certain game. For this, the GB64 is quite nice, but i deleted around 10.000 of these very small BASIC games first.

I am now just fine tuning my collections and spending my time testing each one .d64 or .tap files.

Oh, that's alot work to do, best luck. The C64 definately has a good and big software-palette. Not only games, also demos, pics, tools and music-tunes, that's the great thing on that system.

Just added to my collection.

Supermodel Emulator.

Especially "Daytona USA" i often played in the Arcades, back in time. Mostly in holidays against some friends. It's one of SEGA's alltime Classics and alot fun in multiplayer-mode. The SEGA Saturn version of it is also great.
